Please Support Collection for Retired Religious on Dec. 8 & 9
Aging religious need your help. Senior Catholic sisters, brothers, and religious order priests ministered for years for little to no pay. Their sacrifices now leave their religious communities without adequate retirement savings. Your gift to the annual collection for the Retirement Fund for Religious on Dec. 8 & 9 helps to provide medications, nursing care, and more for tens of thousands of elderly religious. Please be generous.

Bishop Parkes has written a letter of support for bulletins in English and Spanish.

Por favor, apoye la colecta especial del 8 y 9 de diciembre para Religiosos/Religiosas jubilados.
Religiosos/Religiosas de edad avanzada necesitan su ayuda. Las hermanas, hermanos y sacerdotes católicos de orden religiosa sirvieron en sus ministerios por muchos años por poco o ninguna paga. Sus sacrificios han dejado a sus comunidades religiosas sin ahorros adecuados para su jubilación. Su donación a la colecta anual para el fondo de jubilación para religiosos/religiosas el 8 y 9 de diciembre ayuda a proveer medicamentos, cuidado de enfermería y gastos adicionales para millares de religiosos y religiosas de edad avanzada. Por favor, sea generoso.

El Obispo Parkes ha escrito una carta pidiendo apoyo para ser publicada en los boletines en inglés y en español.
